About 80 million people are expected to travel, coming up in the next few days. OK. It's wild, right? Yeah, that's a lot of people. Thanksgiving dinner costs have decreased. Yeah, with this year's. No, I hate this gag. And you said it last week, and then it came back up again, you said it a few days after. OK. Now here you are saying it again, two days before Thanksgiving. Well, I'm just-- We just report the news. You can feed ton people with $58. [LAUGHTER] Look, I just report the news. Oh, lies. Possibly, possibly. Well, this story is from NBC News. So whether you believe NBC News or not-- This whole gag. You know, I don't do a lot of fact-checking. I'll do any fact-checking for that matter. We just read it, OK? This is a dumb show. We just read it. We just read what's on the paper. But come on, seriously. It doesn't get on your nerves when they say that study. Yeah, when they lie. Come on. Well, it says they decreased. This year's meal estimate is $58. Say, say, no, Bill, no, no. Should I mark it? Are we done with this story? No, we are done with it. It's all lies. There is absolutely no way. OK. There's no way. All right, how about this story? It's $1. How about this next lie? All right, so this lie says, sugar foods is recalling fresh gourmet tortilla strip Santa Fe style due to wheat allergen contamination. Wheat allergen contamination. Yeah, the 3.5 ounce bags have a best buy date of June 20, 2025. And they were distributed to 20 states. Consumers with wheat allergies are advised to return the product for a refund or disposal of it. Another recall. So is that a lie? Say. Maybe that's a lie, too. All right, well, here's the next lie. Another one, another one. Beyonce and Kelly Rowland reunited with Destiny child member Michelle Williams at the opening of her Broadway show. Death becomes her. You think? Could you imagine going to the Broadway? Oh, you think it's a lie? Maybe it was a hologram. The holograms of Beyonce and Kelly Rowland. Yeah. I mean, I can't imagine being there. And all of a sudden, here comes Beyonce, Kelly Rowland. You're going to see like a Broadway show. Michelle Williams is there. You're like, oh, this is a big deal. Michelle Williams. She's been on the city child, whatever. Then all of a sudden, Beyonce and Kelly come out on stage. Yeah, apparently Beyonce shared some photos on IG and they were joined by her mom, Tina Knowles. So not only was it Beyonce and Kelly, it was also Tina Knowles as well. So I mean, we know that's a big lie because Tina Knowles was somewhere else at the time. Let's see here. Director Joel Souza says it's fine. If viewers don't want to go watch Rust, which debuted on November the 20th after the fatal shooting on set. Talking about with Alec Baldwin. Yes. Yeah, he says, quote, I understand that it's now a strange thing for people. And it'll be interesting to see how many people react to that aspect. And that particular scene, right? Yeah. They didn't cut anything out. Well, they didn't know that it happened when they were off. Yeah, I know. But I mean, then they get back to it. They film it. They're still like a shooting scene and all that, right? I'm not too sure about that. But yeah. So I knew you're a fan in general hospital. Oh, yeah. Chad Dole who played Michael on general hospital for 14 years has announced his departure from the show. I don't know too much about it. What happened? Dole expressed gratitude to his cast and crew for an amazing journey thanking the fans for support. No, I guess that's it. You just leave in the show. 14 years had a pretty good run. The Muppet Vision 3D attraction at Disney World was closing to make way for a new era dedicated to animated Monster Zinc franchise. Oh, good. So the Muppets is closing and they're going to do Monster Zinc. Monster Zinc. Yeah. But the Muppets will be transitioning to a new version of the Rock and Roll coaster. The Rock and Roll coaster was Aerosmith for a long time. Yeah. And now it's going to be the Muppets. That'll be fun. Wow. That was fun. That's a fat-- well, that's a fast roller coaster. It's fun. Yeah. I love it. We used to go on that. That's a fast roller coaster. And I like Idris Elba. He is and talks to play Dunkin' in Amazon's live action Masters of the Universe. Alongside Nicholas Gal design as He-Man. Yeah, I grew up on He-Man. I was a He-Man kid. Yeah. I have this small, collectible one. Camilla Mendez is Teela. And Allison Brie will be Evil Lynn. The film will drop June 5, 2026. Oh, how cool is this? Yeah. But Idris Elba, I like him. Wow, me too. So I'll never forget the first time I saw him talk in real life and he had that British accent. And you were like-- I was like, who is this guy? Because in his movies, he don't have a couple of movies that I had seen. There's a few people that do that. Yes. What's his name on Chicago Fire? I know who you talking about. Casey on Chicago Fire has like an American accent. And then when he talks in real life, he breaks up the British accent, but he's really not breaking it out. That's how he talks. That's how he talks. Because he's from London or whatever, the UK. And I'm like, wait a minute. You're like, wait, what? Yeah. So I mean, it's cool. I just didn't know. Just didn't know. 721, it's Bill and Jessica show. We have a phone check coming up next with Clarissa Jenkins. Good morning.
